This story has become a new favorite for me. The drawings create for a fun experience, and not having words allows the reader to perceive what is happening in their own way.

This picture book is a tale of a little old lady trying to make pancakes. She doesn‘t have the ingredients she needs, and her animals keep getting in the way. There are no words in this book, but the pictures carry is through the story as each emotion and detail is shown beautifully on the old lady‘s face. The colors chosen create the whimsical feeling of the story.

Met @scripturient this morning. We had a nice breakfast, she convinced me to try pancakes for the first time. 😊 After that we went to a local tea shop and two book shops. Such a great morning and gorgeous chatting. 😊 Thank you.

cherinium I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the pancakes. Just out of curiosity, was there a specific reason you had never tried them? 6y

Buechersuechtling „Letzte Buchhandlung vor der Langeweile“ ?? Großartig‼️? (edited) 6y
Sarah83 @cherinium in Germany many people eat bread and rolls for breakfast. So I am a really classic breakfast lover. 😊 But it won't be the last time I ate them. 😍 6y
Sarah83 @rubyslippersreads yes. definitely, it is only in German again. 🙈 @Buechersuechtling ja. Die sind wirklich toll da. Kleiner Laden aber tolle Auswahl und ganz liebes Team. 6y

Brunch at Charlie Parkers. Voted the the best breakfast place in the Capitol city and probably the state. Won multiple awards for their breakfast shoe and hubcap pancakes. Seen on Diners Drive in and Dives, the Today show and other. But you need to bring a book. Always. At least a 10 minute wait for a table (if not longer) and then a wait once you order. But it is sooooo worth it.

saresmoore I‘m just sitting here, drooling, trying to decipher exactly what is in these dishes! Is that salad asparagus, peas, spinach, endive, radicchio, and mint?! 6y
BookHermit What is the dish with the fruit? 🤤 6y
BooksForEmpathy @BookHermit Hello! That was French toast with ricotta, caramel, walnuts, and apricots, strawberries, and cassis berries. It was my favorite breakfast dish we‘ve had! 6y
BooksForEmpathy @saresmoore YES!! And goat cheese. Isn‘t it the most perfect salad!? Yum! 6y

I love using wordless picture books with my Kinders. It's a great way to teach them about telling a story...and that illustrations can say just as much as a sentence! These are 2 of my favorite. #bookswithpictures #seasonsreadings2016 #teachersoflitsy

Suzze Pancakes for Breakfast was quite new when my kids went to nursery school. Their teacher loved it. (Side note: I'm still good friends with their teacher, my kids are both in their early 40's) (edited) 8y
BeckyRoy @LaurenReads our family favorite is 8y
LauraBeth My daughter's first word was "Carl" because I showed her those books so much ? 8y
